Retirement Benefits [Abstract] |
RETIREMENT PLANS | RETIREMENT PLANS As described below, Eastman offers various postretirement benefits to its employees. Defined Contribution Plans Eastman sponsors a defined contribution employee stock ownership plan (the "ESOP"), which is a component of the Eastman Investment Plan and Employee Stock Ownership Plan ("EIP/ESOP"), under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Eastman made a contribution in February 2020 to the EIP/ESOP for substantially all U.S. employees equal to 5 percent of their eligible compensation for the 2019 plan year. Employees may allocate contributions to other investment funds within the EIP from the ESOP at any time without restrictions. Allocated shares in the ESOP totaled 2,076,203; 2,119,614; and 2,130,176 shares as of December 31, 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Dividends on shares held by the EIP/ESOP are charged to retained earnings. All shares held by the EIP/ESOP are treated as outstanding in computing earnings per share ("EPS"). In 2006, the Company amended its EIP/ESOP to provide a Company match of 50 percent of the first 7 percent of an employee's compensation contributed to the plan for employees who are hired on or after January 1, 2007. Employees who are hired on or after January 1, 2007, are also eligible for the contribution to the ESOP as described above. Charges for domestic contributions to the EIP/ESOP were $68 million, $67 million, and $64 million for 2019, 2018, and 2017, respectively. Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Pension Plans Eastman maintains defined benefit pension plans that provide eligible employees with retirement benefits. Effective January 1, 2000, the Company's Eastman Retirement Assistance Plan, a U.S. defined benefit pension plan, was amended. Employees' accrued pension benefits earned prior to January 1, 2000 are calculated based on previous plan provisions using the employee's age, years of service, and final average compensation as defined in the plans. The amended plan uses a pension equity formula to calculate an employee's retirement benefits from January 1, 2000 forward. Benefits payable will be the combined pre-2000 and post-1999 benefits. Employees hired on or after January 1, 2007 are not eligible to participate in Eastman's U.S. defined benefit pension plans. Benefits are paid to employees from trust funds. Contributions to the trust funds are made as permitted by laws and regulations. The pension trust funds do not directly own any of the Company's common stock. Pension coverage for employees of Eastman's non-U.S. operations is provided, to the extent deemed appropriate, through separate plans. The Company systematically provides for obligations under such plans by depositing funds with trustees, under insurance policies, or by book reserves. Other Postretirement Benefit Plans Under its other postretirement benefit plans in the U.S., Eastman provides life insurance for eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007. Eastman provides a subsidy for pre-Medicare health care and dental benefits to eligible retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007 that will end on December 31, 2021. Company funding is also provided for eligible Medicare retirees hired prior to January 1, 2007 with a health reimbursement arrangement. A few of the Company's non-U.S. operations have supplemental health benefit plans for certain retirees, the cost of which is not significant to the Company. Below is a summary balance sheet of the change in plan assets during 2019 and 2018, the funded status of the plans and amounts recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.

The Company calculates service and interest cost components of net periodic benefit costs for its significant defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans by applying the specific spot rates along the yield curve to the plans' projected cash flows. A 6.50 percent rate of increase in per capita cost of covered health care benefits is assumed for 2020. The rate is assumed to decrease gradually to five percent in 2026 and remain at that level thereafter. A one percent increase or decrease in health care cost trend would have had no material impact on the 2019 service and interest costs or the 2019 benefit obligation, because the Company's contributions for benefits are fixed. In 2017, the Company performed a five year experience study on assumptions for the U.S. plans, including a review of the mortality tables. As a result of the study, the Company has updated the mortality assumptions used to a modified RP-2017 table with a modified MP-2017 improvement scale and no collar adjustment. The fair value of plan assets for the U.S. pension plans at December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $1.9 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, while the fair value of plan assets at December 31, 2019 and 2018 for non-U.S. pension plans was $820 million and $713 million, respectively. At December 31, 2019 and 2018, the expected weighted-average long-term rate of return on U.S. pension plan assets was 7.37 percent and 7.43 percent, respectively. The expected weighted-average long-term rate of return on non-U.S. pension plans assets was 4.26 percent and 4.49 percent at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Plan Assets The following tables reflect the fair value of the defined benefit pension plans assets.

The other alternative investments in this category are valued under the practical expedient method which is based on the most recently reported net asset value provided by the management of each private investment fund, adjusted as appropriate, for any lag between the date of the financial reports and the measurement date.

Inputs used in developing fair value estimates include reported trades, broker quotes, benchmark yields, and base spreads.

Investment Strategy Eastman's investment strategy for its defined benefit pension plans is to maximize the long-term rate of return on plan assets within an acceptable level of risk in order to meet or exceed the plan's actuarially assumed long-term rate of return and to minimize the cost of providing pension benefits. A periodic asset/liability study is conducted in order to assist in the determination and, if necessary, modification of the appropriate long-term investment policy for the plan. The investment policy establishes a target allocation range for each asset class and the fund is managed within those ranges. The plans use a number of investment approaches including investments in equity, real estate, and fixed income funds in which the underlying securities are marketable in order to achieve this target allocation. The plans also invest in private equity and other funds. Diversification is created through investments across various asset classes, geographies, fund managers, and individual securities. This investment process is designed to provide for a well-diversified portfolio with no significant concentration of risk. The investment process is monitored by an investment committee that includes senior management. Eastman's investment strategy for its VEBA trust is to invest in intermediate-term, well diversified, high quality investment instruments, with a primary objective of capital preservation. The expected rate of return for all plans was determined primarily by modeling the expected long-term rates of return for the categories of investments held by the plans and the targeted allocation percentage against various potential economic scenarios. The Company made no contributions to its U.S. defined benefit pension plans in 2019 or 2018. For 2020 calendar year, there are no minimum required cash contributions for the U.S. defined benefit pension plans under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The estimated future benefit payments, reflecting expected future service, as appropriate, are as follows:
